"Midnight Runners" opened in Korea on Aug. 9, placing second at the box office with $1.97 million in ticket sales and total admission of 308,303. It held the second place position until Aug. 14.

As of Aug. 15, the movie has earned $18.9 million and sold 2.73 million tickets, way above its production budget of $6.13 million.

At the weekly box office from Aug. 11 to 13, the movie earned $9.5 million and drew 1.32 million audience, according to the Korean Film Council (KOFIC).

This is Kang Ha-neul's last film project before he enlists in the Korean military on Sept. 11.

"The actor wants a low-key enlistment. He used to say that he wants to join the Army soon, but we also got to know about the enlistment date through a media report," his agency said, according to the Korea Herald.

He withdrew from the drama "Bad Guys 2" upon receiving his enlistment notice.

Park Seo-joon previously said his character in the movie is full of "passion, tenacity and sincerity."

"He's someone who doesn't really know how the world works. He's a little sloppy, just full of passion," he said.

The actor is also happy with the chemistry between him and Kang Ha-neul.

"We instantly got along. ... We might have led different lives but the way we think is very similar," he said.
